You might look in the DAG repository (or other public repositories)
http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/ In some cases people have had luck installing RPMs from RH 9 or Fedora Core on RHEL 3.

pitfall : only packages till Red Hat 9 are freely downloadable even for security updates, at least one account has to be created for the service...

Like WS, ES offers only standard support. Basic editions, those with only update support and no technical support, start at $349, and standard editions start at $799. If roughly $800 per copy sounds expensive, remember that it includes one year of unlimited technical support for Red Hat.
Taking into account the less-expensive x86-based hardware and RHEL AS costs, AS is more affordable than Sun Microsystems Solaris or IBM AIX running on SPARC or pSeries servers. RHEL AS for x86 processors starts at $1,499 with standard support and increases to $2,499 for premier-level access.

To Do
- check K12OS Linux distribution (RH supported ??)
- find repositories for base packages (those included in RHEL 3.0) + security updates : freely available ??? one subscription per server ?
- check whether kernel is updated 2.4.21 is way too old
